Hello, I have numbered root inode of my experimental fs 0. All worked, but ls did not return the direcotry entry. That is, it didn't return .. entry in it's children. It showed the mountpoint right. I have not checked if it shows . in the directory itself. So my question is, why is inode number supposed to be non-zero? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@ucw.cz> -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
